The Richard H. Driehaus collection's 1926 Miller Locomobile Junior 8 Special won two awards at the 70th Pebble Beach Concours d'Elegance, held this past Sunday, August 15th: it received a Second in Class from among a highly competitive group of historic Miller race cars; and the Tony Hulman Award for the most significant open wheel race car, a prize donated by the Indianapolis Motor Speedway.
This car started the Indianapolis 500 twice, earning a 7th place finish in the 1928 edition of the race. Please join us in celebrating the rich legacy of American automotive design and engineering, and the lifelong work of Richard Herman Driehaus in assembling some of the best examples of that legacy. We lost Richard this year, so these accolades come as a fitting tribute to his commitment to the cause. Cheers to you, Richard!

We are deeply saddened by the passing of our founder, Richard H. Driehaus. A man of many talents and interests, his legacy of positive change in the lives of everyday people endures.
Farewell, Richard. Thanks for being you.
